John Daniel – Torre Cuarzo on Reforma (by Richard Meier) – Blog 5

When browsing through Richard Meier’s online portfolio this project was the first to catch my eye. It is located in Mexico city and call “Torre Cuarzo on Reforma” which translates to “Quartz Tower on Reformation”. There are 3 main features to this building that I really like.

The first feature being that you can see the white structural skeleton of the building through the transparent glass.

The second feature being the open air corner of the building that is opened up with no glass windows but still has white columns

The third feature being how proud the tower stands compared to its surroundings. The tower looks like a strong vertical entity on the landscape.
